[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Pobednik (Serbian Cyrillic: Победник; English: The Victor) is a monument in the Kalemegdan Fortress in Belgrade, Serbia), erected after World War I to commemorate the first Allied victory of the war, the defeat of the Austro-Hungarian Empire by the Kingdom of Serbia in the Battle of Cer. It is one of the most famous works of the Croatian sculptor, Ivan Meštrović.
The statue was originally supposed to be placed on the Republic Square, but ended up at Kalemegdan Fortress after people complained about its nudity.

This statue, holding a dove of peace on one hand and a sword of war in the other hand, and looking forward across the confluence of the Sava and the Danube, and over the vast Pannonian plain, towards the very distant Fruška Gora mountain, is probably the most powerful, most popular visual symbol of Belgrade.

Bane, Pobednik je naručen pre I sv.rata a u slavu pobede Srbije u Prvom balkanskom ratu. No ubrazani organizovani atentat "čika Pere kralja" na Ferdinanda usporilo je postavku spomenika na Terazijama, na fontani sa 5 kaskada da svedoče 5-to vekovno ropstvo pod Turcima (Turkinjama je najteže jer su još pod Turcima). Posle pobede u I sv.ratu i tek 1928.g postavljen je daleko od sramežljivog Beograda na Kalimegdanu i okrenut Zapadu. Pouzdani podaci, pa molim da ako možeš da ispraviš svoje. Ukucaj POBEDNIK KALIMEGDAN na Google-u i dobićeš sve to šta sam napisao i šire.
